    Recently found out I have IC

    I don't understand what's happening to my body. I'm sad and confused why and where did it come from. I'm waiting for that better day. I would like to know from someone how to properly digest this. The pain is over whelming I can't do my normal daily functions. I can't sleep on my stomach anymore. If you have any comfort remedies or suggestions I will be glad to hear them. Nobody understand what I feel or what my body is going through.
